Starting in October 2020, we expanded our Therapy offerings to include Occupational Therapy.   Our Occupational Therapist has over 25 years specializing in Hand / Upper Extremity Rehabilitation.  She has extensive experience with a wide range of Orthopedic and Neurological conditions affecting adults, adolescents, and children.

 

Occupational Therapy focuses on both fine and gross motor skills, aiding patients in their recovery goals in order to develop, recover, improve, and maintain the skills needed for daily living and working.
